Happy Birthday.... cont'd

This is a vintage cut glass and chrome martini cocktail shaker/mixer. What makes this shaker a little more funky is a built-in battery- operated blender! Unfortunately, I could not determine what type of battery this takes – it appears to be slightly larger than a “C” but slightly smaller than a “D”? So I have not been able to determine if the mixer portion still works. This still functions well as a manual shaker and makes for a fantastic addition to any barware display.

The glass shaker features a cut glass diamond pattern on the top ¼ of the shaker with the words COCKTAIL BLENDER. The bottom ¾ of the glass shaker features architectural vertical lines radiating up from a cut-glass sunburst base. The top of the shaker screws off and is made of chrome. The shaker measures 9 ½ inches tall.
